UPCOMING VISIT TO FRATTAMAGGIORE (NAPLES) - ITALY

Cantiere
Giovaniwill be the host of the sixth meeting of the
EPAEMSI project (European Partnership on Adult Education and Mobility for
Social Inclusion) which will take place from 20th to 23rd
February 2014. They will be welcoming in Frattamaggiore (Italy), adult learners
from disadvantaged social groups from Spain, Malta, Romania, Poland, Slovenia
and United Kingdom.

After having
received a pre-departure training in their respective countries, participating
adult learners are ready to embark on this 4-day intercultural experience.
During their time in Frattamaggiore, and with the support of their leaders and
of the Italian organisation, they will take part in a series of activities
orientated at social inclusion through education. These activities will include
a presentation of the hosting organisation and its good practice on education
for social inclusion. They will also give the possibility to the adult learners
to experience, on the field, this good practice. Finally, an intercultural
celebration will take place, to which will be invited the visiting
participants, the members of the public and local organisations.

The aim of
this project, co-funded by the European Commission through the Lifelong
Learning Programme, is to use the experience of the partner organisations on
social inclusion and the active participation of adult learners from
disadvantaged social groups to promote and improve social inclusion through
education, in particular non-formal and informal education. Throughout the
two-year project, partners organise mobility activities and activities at local
level in order to share their best practices on how to use education for social
inclusion and bring light on the issue of social exclusion.
